Addressing health inequities

Each year you are required to complete at least one activity for each of the four CAPE domains, and record this as part of your CPD.
A reflection on how you could apply this learning to your practice should be included with your CPD claim as outlined in the CPD program guide.

Addressing health inequities encompasses learning that acknowledges the differing distribution of resources and opportunities within society and discusses how doctors can address this inequity.

Examples:

Equitable Access to Care – ensuring healthcare services are of high-quality, readily available, and culturally acceptable to all individuals, regardless of their background to promote fair and effective care for everyone.
Addressing Structural Determinants of Health – confronting and dismantling systemic issues such as sexism, racism, ageism, classism and ablism.
Building Community Partnerships – engaging with local organisations and community leaders to identify and address the unique health needs and barriers experienced by marginalised groups.
Access to resources – ensuring that support services such as childcare, housing assistance and financial aid are available and accessible to low-income or marginalised communities.
